THE TUBES featuring Fee Waybill - A New Year's Eve Bash

Come celebrate the New Year with The Tubes, one of the most theatrical and popular New Wave rock bands of '80s. The band is best known for their classic '80s hit, "She's a Beauty." and they now come back to George's bringing their outrageous and entertaining live show.

From humble beginnings in Phoenix, Arizona to the streets of San Francisco THE TUBES were catapulted into Rock and Roll’s limelight in the mid 1970’s and made there most memorable mark on Rock history throughout the ‘70’s and ‘80’s with such classic rock staples as White Punks On Dope, What Do You Want From Life, Mondo Bondage, Don’t Touch Me There, Sushi Girl, Talk To Ya Later and their Number 1 Billboard hit She’s A Beauty.

No matter how memorable THE TUBES recordings were, the lifeline of the band has always been their live performance. From the exuberant and imaginative to the outrageous, THE TUBES continue to perform for hordes of fans throughout the world. The current line up of THE TUBES (still retaining four original members) consists of the enigmatic and unforgettable vocalist Fee Waybill, the elusive guitarist Roger Steen, the solid bass playing of Rick Anderson, the legendary Prairie Prince on drums, and keyboardist extroardinaire David Medd.

THE TUBES didn't invent the idea of rock & roll as theater, but they have certainly thrived on the concept. Few bands have had a more entertaining and over the top live show than THE TUBES. Their influence can be seen in many of the visually oriented groups of today such as The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Marilyn Manson and others.

Though they may have been ahead of their time in the eighties, they haven’t lost a step and continue to reinvent themselves. In a world where visual stimulation is king, THE TUBES are right at home and masters of their domain.

They’ve been recognized not only as a great band to watch, but a great band period! They continue to write clever, provocative material as heard on their most recent critically acclaimed release Genius Of America and continue to add to their body of work with DVD/Video releases from their live shows including The Tubes World Tour and the 2005 release Wild In London. THE TUBES are currently in the studio preparing all new material for a new recording and new tour. Though their roots are steeped in the classic rock they’ve created, THE TUBES continue to innovate, evolve and ignite, no matter where they go.

Opening the night will be an electric set by the vocally driven, slightly folk influenced, yet very heavy, Indie rock quintet Cannons and Clouds.

They hail from San Francisco and remain eager to stay on course within this arduous, sometimes tragic, yet ever so rewarding career in writing, performing, and touring rock n' roll music.

They celebrate three independent releases, actively tour, and regularly open or support internationally acclaimed acts in SF houses such as Cafe DuNord, The Rickshaw Stop, Bottom of The Hill, The Independent, and The Great American Music Hall.
